PTC thermostats, also referred to as Positive Temperature Co-efficient (PTC) thermistors, are industry-standard temperature sensors that are most efficient for temperature control and measurement applications. A PTC thermistor is a semiconductor-based resistor whose resistance increases with rising temperature. PTC thermistors are often used as servo mechanisms for temperature control and as elements for electronic over-temperature protection modules. B59060A0040A010 is the model number for a conventional 10-ohm PTC thermistor.

Application Field

B59060A0040A010 is a 10-ohm PTC thermistor ideal for a variety of temperature control and measurement applications. These load current measurements typically require precision and sensitivity. PTC thermistors are ideal for applications in the HVAC and computer industry, home appliances, industrial controllers, temperature sensing and controlling, and automotive applications. PTC thermistors are designed to be used in linear servo, voltage or current regulators, on/off, and ac or dc switching power supplies to adjust temperature accurately. In automotive applications, PTC thermistors can be used to regulate air temperature inside the car, prevent devices from quickly over-heating, and regulate the current through power windows.

Working Principle

The working principle behind PTC thermistors is based on the fact that the temperature coefficient of resistance of a semiconductor material is higher than that of a conductor. As such, the resistance of a PTC thermistor increases at a higher rate than other components like resistors and diodes as the temperature increases. This makes it possible to accurately measure the temperature of a system by monitoring the resistance of the PTC thermistor. As the temperature rises, the resistance of the thermistor increases, allowing it to be easily detected by the microcontroller or analog circuit.

The resistance of a PTC thermistor changes gradually and depends on the semiconductor material used in the construction. In most cases, the resistance increases exponentially in response to a change in temperature. The resistance can also vary depending on the ambient temperature and the the presence of various external factors like moisture, dust, current, and vibration. The most common materials used for PTC thermistors are PTC polymers, silicon carbide, and ferrite.

Overall, PTC thermistors provide reliable and accurate temperature measurements. As a result, they have become an important part of many temperature control and measurement systems. B59060A0040A010 is a reliable 10-ohm PTC thermistor that can be used to ensure accurate temperature measurements in a variety of industrial applications. With its reliable and consistent performance, it is the perfect choice for temperature sensing and controlling in automotive, home appliance, industrial controllers, and computer industry applications.
